    Description

    Juxtaposed with The Pallas of Velletri at The Louvre (on Scan the World), the similarities of the helmet and expression suggest that the two sculptures were made by the same artist, Cresilas (or Kresilas; concluded by Hinks, Fittschen, Muss and Schubert; queried by Lippold). The lettering inscribed on the front of the bust ПΕΡΙΚΛΕΣ translates to the name Pericles. Pericles was known as a great warrior and legislator, depicted here with well carved facial hair (as seen in Trajanic and Antonine depictions of men in power, see 1, 2) and a Helmet.

    This is a Roman copy of an original portrait which was perhaps created in Perikles' own day, or shortly after his death. However, it probably bears little physical resemblance to Perikles' actual appearance, showing an ideal type of the mature soldier citizen, wearing a helmet pushed back on his head.
